Glyn Bailey – SONGS FROM THE OLD ILLAWALLA – 13 Trk CD – White Label
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Would be Cowboy Glyn Bailey twangs his way through fifteen tracks of Wild West spaghetti mid-America folk. There is a bit of Johnny Cash (his septuagenarian phase) splashed in here, in what must be parodying, but hugely entertaining spot of interesting cabaret.

It may not be intentional but this is maybe one of Lancashire’s weirdest concept albums yet.
